The first lens L1 has positive refractive power; the second lens L2 has negative refractive power; the third lens L3 has positive refractive power; the fourth lens L4 has negative refractive power; the fifth lens has positive refractive power, the sixth lens has negative refractive power. Moreover, the surfaces of the six piece lenses should be designed as the aspheric shape preferably in order to correct the aberration well.

The positive refractive power of the first lens L1 is specified in the condition (1).

Therefore, numerical range of condition (1) should be set within the numerical range of the following condition (1-A) preferably,

0.88≤f1/f≤0.98  (1-A)

Negative refractive power of the second lens L2 is specified in the condition (2). Moreover, correction of chromatic aberration on axle and outside axle cannot be implemented easily outside the range of the condition (2).

Therefore, numerical range of condition (7) should be set within the numerical range of the following condition (7-A) preferably,

−2.60≤(R5+R6)/(R5−R6)≤0.68  (7-A)
